Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for being on healthcaremagic.com.
I am Dr.Ajay Panwar,a neurologist,here to answer your query.

Till now,the problems you are getting(uneasiness in head,tiredness and letharginess) are not of severe intoxication.
However,as you are strongly suspicious of the nature of food eaten,I suggest you to visit an Emergency room.You need to be under the observation of an emergency physician.He may prefer to perform a gastric lavage on you and tackle any situation of clinical crisis,if it arises so due to late effects of intoxication.

Hope that I have answered your query.If you have some further questions,I shall be glad to answer else please close the thread,rate it and write a review as your rating will be of help to me.

Regards
Dr.Ajay Panwar,
MD,DM(Neurology)
